A fedi bot that generates posts with the format Get {verbed}, {subject} (e.g.
"Get petted, nerd"). The canonical version is hosted at
@getverbed@honeycomb.engineer.
Clone the repo, then run npm install to install dependencies.
If you want to be able to make posts with your instance of the bot, you will
need to copy .env.example to .env and fill in the appropriate values (the
URL of your fedi instance, and an access token for the bot).
Both the verbs and the subjects are stored in arrays in
arrays.ts. New words can simply be added to these
arrays.
The VERBS array can contain either plain strings or an object containing a
word and a content warning. This should be used if the verb you're adding could
be uncomfortable for people (e.g. if it's lewd).
{ word: 'hand-held', cw: 'extremely lewd' }Duplicate detection runs as a PR check, so you won't be able to merge fi you add duplicate words to the arrays.
The repo has prettier installed to maintain code style, particularly the use
of single/double quotes and trailing commas.
Editors like VSCode should pick up the .prettierrc config file automatically
and allow you to format the code according to the rules, but if not you can run
npm run prettier:format to format the code before committing.
Prettier runs as a PR check, so if your changes don't match the expected format, you won't be able to merge.
